Method
 

Marinating and Cooking
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine vegetable oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper. Whisk until mixed and add flank steak. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.
  2. While marinating, prepare the spicy cream sauce by whisking mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, honey, and a pinch of salt in a separate bowl. Set aside.
  3. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes. Remove steak from marinade, drip off excess, and grill for 4-5 minutes per side until it reaches 130°F. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  4. Serve cooked jasmine rice as the base in each bowl, layer sliced steak, and add toppings of chopped green onions, shredded carrots, and sliced cucumber.
  5. Drizzle the spicy cream sauce over the bowls, serve immediately, and enjoy!
